ExploreHow we screen
Resumes describe. Screening verifies.
A resume tells you where someone sat. It does not tell you whether they can close a month without heroics, build a forecast a board will trust, or defend a tax position under review. Before any candidate reaches you, we test for the work itself.
- Discipline-specific technical questions written by someone who has managed the function.
- Walk-throughs of real work: a close calendar, a reconciliation, a driver-based model, a provision.
- Stage and environment fit: multi-entity, multi-currency, regulated, lender-reported, or pre-audit.
- Reference conversations with people who supervised the work, not just people who liked the person.
